I heard about that too from other coders. I guess its safest to just leave the chime on for now!

IMO, i don't think airbags are disabled when only disabling the chime, it's only a sound that is turned off. It's a chime, not all cars have a warning chime either, but that logic may be flawed as BMW could designed it that way. But I doubt it...

The way I look at it is this: "Do bulbs still work after disabling the car's warm/cold bulb checks?" ....... Obviously, unless it's legitimately blown.

I should've checked the airbag status in INPA after disabling it. My fiancee took my netbook for a conference and won't be back until this weekend, or else I could've looked at INPA tonight. If someone else could do it, let us know if it's functioning.
